WARNING LIGHTS (2/5)
The presence and operation of the warning lights DEPEND ON THE EQUIPMENT AND COUNTRY.
ÔCoolant temperature war-
ning light
If this remains lit while driving, ac-
companied by a beep, this means the
engine is overheating. Stop and allow
the engine to run at idle speed for a
minute or two. The temperature should
drop. If not, stop the engine. Let it cool
down before checking the coolant level.
Contact an authorised dealer if neces-
sary.
ÄWarning light for monitoring
exhaust gas
It comes on when the ignition is
switched on and then goes out.
– If it lights up continuously, consult an
authorised dealer as soon as pos-
sible;

until the light stops flashing. Contact
your approved Dealer as soon as
possible.
Please refer to the information on
“Maintenance and antipollution advice”
in Section 2.

WINDSCREEN WASH/WIPE
nWindscreen wiper
With the ignition on, move
stalk 1 around the steering wheel:
A Park.
B Intermittent wiping.
The wipers will pause for several
seconds between sweeps.
C Normal wiping speed.
D Fast wiping speed.
sWindscreen wiper
With the ignition on, pull stalk 1
towards you.
A brief pull will trigger a single sweep
of the wipers, in addition to the wind-
screen washer.
A longer pull will trigger three sweeps
of the wipers, in addition to the wind-
screen washer.
In frosty weather, make sure that
the wiper blades are not stuck by ice
(risk of motor overheating).
Keep an eye on the condition of the
blades. They should be replaced as
soon as they become less efficient.
This will occur approximately once
a year. Clean your windscreen reg-
ularly.
If you switch off the ignition before
switching off the windscreen wiper
(position A) the blades will stop at
random on the windscreen.
After switching the ignition back on,
simply move stalk 1 to position A to
place them in the park position.
Before any action on the
windscreen (washing the
vehicle, de-icing, cleaning
the windscreen, etc.) return
stalk 1 to position A (park).
Risk of injury and/or damage.

Particularités des versions essence (X95 - J95 - R95 - Renault) ENG_NU_975-8_X92_Dacia_2
SPECIAL FEATURES OF PETROL VERSIONS
Do not park the vehicle or
run the engine in locations
where combustible sub-
stances or materials such
as grass or leaves can come into
contact with the hot exhaust system.
The following operating conditions
should be avoided:
– driving for long periods when the low
fuel level warning light is lit;
– using leaded petrol;
– using fuel or lubrication additives
which are not approved.
Or operating faults such as:
– faulty ignition, running out of fuel or
disconnected spark plugs resulting
in the engine misfiring or cutting out
when driving;
– loss of power,
may cause the catalytic converter to
overheat, reducing its efficiency which
may irreparably damage it and cause
heat damage to the vehicle.If you notice any of the above operating
faults, have the necessary repairs car-
ried out as soon as possible by an ap-
proved dealer.
These faults may be avoided by regu-
larly taking your vehicle to an approved
Dealer at the intervals specified in the
Maintenance Document.
Starting problems
To avoid damaging the catalytic con-
verter, do not keep trying to start the
engine (using the start button, or by
pushing or towing the vehicle) without
having identified and corrected the
cause of the fault.
If the fault cannot be identified, do not
continue to try and start the engine, but
contact an approved dealer.

Boîte de vitesses automatique (X92 - Renault) ENG_NU_975-8_X92_Dacia_2
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION (2/3)
Driving in manual modeWith the selector lever in position D,
move the lever to the left into the M
position. Shifting the lever repeatedly
allows you to change gears manually:
– to move down through the gears,
push the lever forwards;
– to move up through the gears, push
the lever backwards.
The gear selected is displayed on the
instrument panel.
Special circumstances
– If the bends and road surface do
not allow you to stay in automatic
mode (e.g. in the mountains), we
recommend that you change to
manual mode. This will prevent the
automatic gearbox from changing
gear repeatedly when climbing, and
permit engine braking on long de-
scents.
– On a slippery surface or surface
with little grip, change to manual
mode M and select second gear
before accelerating to avoid wheel-
spin.
Special cases
In certain driving conditions (e.g. re-
quiring engine protection, operation of
the Electronic Stability Program: ESC)
the automatic system may change the
gear automatically. Likewise, to prevent
incorrect manoeuvres, a gear change
may be refused by the automatic
system: in this case the gear display
flashes for a few seconds as a warning.
An impact to the under-
side of the vehicle while
manoeuvring (e.g.: strik-
ing a post, raised kerb or
other street furniture) may result in
damage to the vehicle (e.g.: defor-
mation of an axle).
To avoid any risk of accident, have
your vehicle checked by an ap-
proved Dealer.
When facing uphill, to remain
stopped, do not keep your foot on
the accelerator.
Risk of overheating the automatic
gearbox.

Fusibles (X92 - Renault) ENG_NU_975-8_X92_Dacia_5
Fuses in passenger compartment A
If any electrical component does not
work, check the condition of the fuses.
Unclip the access flap A.
Check the fuse in question
and replace it, if necessary,
with a fuse of the same
rating.
If a fuse is fitted where the rating is
too high, it may cause the electrical
circuit to overheat (risk of fire) in the
event of an item of equipment using
an excessive amount of current.
FUSES (1/4)
A
To comply with current legislation,
or as a precaution, you can obtain
an emergency kit from your appro-
ved dealer containing a set of spare
bulbs and fuses.
Clip 1
Remove the fuse using tweezers 1, lo-
cated at the back of flap A.
To remove the fuse from the tweezers,
slide the fuse to the side.
It is not advisable to use the free fuse
locations.

Refitting a front or rear wiper
blade
To refit the wiper blade, proceed in re-
verse order to removal. Make sure that
the blade is correctly locked in position.
Check the condition of the wiper
blades. You are responsible for their
service life:
– clean the blades, windscreen and
rear screen regularly with soapy
water;
– do not use them when the wind-
screen or rear screen are dry;
– free them from the windscreen or
rear screen when they have not
been used for a long time.
– In frosty weather, make
sure that the wiper blades
are not stuck by ice (to
avoid the risk of the motor
overheating).
– Check the condition of the wiper
blades.
Replace the wiper blades as soon
as they begin to lose efficiency
(approximately once a year).
Whilst changing the blade, take care
not to drop the arm onto the window
after it has been removed as this
may break the window.

Anomalies de fonctionnement (X67 - X92 - Renault) ENG_NU_975-8_X92_Dacia_5
OPERATING FAULTS (4/5)
On the road POSSIBLE CAUSES WHAT TO DO
Whistling Roof aerial poorly positioned. Position the aerial.
The engine overheats. The coolant
temperature indicator light comes
on.Engine cooling fan not working. Stop the vehicle, switch off the engine and
contact an approved dealer.
Coolant leaks. Stop the vehicle, switch off the engine and
check the coolant reservoir: it should con-
tain fluid. If there is no coolant, consult an
approved dealer as soon as possible.
The oil change warning light remains
lit after an oil change.Warning not reset after oil change.Reset the warning after changing the oil;
refer to the information in the paragraph on
the “On-board computer” in Section 1.
Radiator: If there is a significant lack of coolant, remember that it must never be topped up using cold coolant while
the engine is very warm. After any procedure on the vehicle which has involved even partial draining of the cooling
system, it must be refilled with a new mixture prepared in the correct proportions. Reminder: only products approved
by the Technical Department may be used for this purpose.
